New research shows the global service sector isn't as green as we thought.
Between 1995–2021, service-based emissions rose by 63%, driven by public, health & financial services.
Time to rethink sustainability in services.

Empirical reality completely undermines Western narratives about Chinese "debt-trap diplomacy". A Johns Hopkins University investigation of more than a thousand loans to African countries found that China never seized assets, and never even used courts to enforce payments.
In this new piece we show that as the imperial core imposed structural adjustment programs on Africa, Africans were forced to consume less while their surplus resources were transferred instead out to the capitalist world economy effectively *for free*. roape.net/2025/02/28/p...
Striking data from the latest release of the Democracy Perception Index.
This data is published by the Alliance of Democracies Foundation, a European NGO founded by the former head of NATO and the former PM of Denmark, and certainly cannot be accused of pro-China bias.
This piece explains in a nutshell the staggering failure of capitalism to address the climate crisis. “No capitalist,” Marx wrote, “ever voluntarily introduces a new method of production… so long as it reduces the rate of profit.”

Nice summary of our recent paper on the carbon content of our technosphere
📢My latest: New research shows we’re adding fossil carbon to our built environment at an even faster rate than we’re pumping it into the atmosphere. With @klaushubacek.bsky.social and colleagues.
